Very nice to see that the Mosquito Meeting tradition is being upheld, in all the particulars: beer, flying, beer, sauna, beer...  ;)  Thanks for sharing these photos!

most important thing about that "CUP" was that it was not full of beer! :) :x

Now the question is this, I've already run the "Winter Meet" by the wife (Little Colonel) and she was cool with it.   

Now the quandary.   Do I say Hello "to shooting"?   I told mipoikel to keep in eye for 2011 or 2012 for a "Karaya Experience".

We got 3 major meetings every year, Urban Blitz which is held early february, AH Spring Meet at march and Mosquito Meeting in july.
Take your pick, or if you can, join us in all off the above  :salute

The AH Spring Meet is focused to AH2, the 2 others are for wider audience from Finnish Virtual Pilots and friends.
Now we have here pilots from games: AH2, WW2OL, IL-2 and WB.

We are just preparing for celebrational dinner for the occasion of 15th Mosquito Meeting.

Excellent!  (For the history of it, and it also looks very good.)

Some day I will travel to Finland. Harppa will be my first stop. :)

I will be sure to pick a time when you guys are having a 'meeting' as you call them.

S!

 I can arrange more of these shell casing openers to those who come from abroad to the meeting. Even ones made of the ORIGINAL MG151/20 shell casings :) Would be a nice gift for the person who comes farthest away. The meeting was going great even I could not attend too much and in the pic with the F/A-18C you see why ;) Hope to see you in a meeting one day gents :)

I'm really aiming at going to the Spring Meeting 2010. If I do, I probably won't be earning the 20mm bottle opener, since my brother then might also come and he lives 100km further away from Finland than me. But that ok, I already recieved a MG151/20 shell casing at one of my earlier visits.

Would be great to have other non-Finns there. At two of my three earlier visits I have been the only Non-Finn, but it was still great trips.
